Creates an instance of the .

Syntax

public void new(str filename, str mode)

Run On

Called

Parameters

  • filename
    Type: str
    The name of the file to open for this instance of the BinaryIo class.
  • mode
    Type: str
    The mode used to create this instance of the BinaryIo class.

Remarks

If an attacker can control input to the new method, a security risk exists. Therefore, this method runs under Code Access Security. Calls to this method on the server require permission from the . Ensure that the user has development privileges by setting the security key to SysDevelopment on the control that calls this method.

Examples

This example uses the BinaryIo class to read data from the ExampleFile text file.
